Junction True Value Hardware was the victim of a smash and grab burglary attempt at approximately 4 am on Dec. 31.

Three suspects, according to the store, smashed out the glass doors and gained entry but did not get much. "Just a case of Reeses Peanut Butter cups" said a store employee. They attempted to take a Stihl Power Blower but it was tethered and they left it behind.

The security cameras captured the crime but the footage is grainy.  This is the third incident at True Value Hardware this year including one in which someone was found hiding in the store at closing time.

It's also the latest in a string of smash and grab incidents including one at Big 5 Sporting Goods at Westwood Village a few weeks ago and one at Menashe Jewelers in the West Seattle Junction last week.

The store said they are planning to clean up the damage, board up the door and reopen.
